The Problem
Local business owners do not know whether they appear in AI search engine answers. The score becomes the conversation opener for outreach and the deliverable for a productized AEO audit. The scoring formula should reward branded SERP presence (top 10 organic) and AI Overview citations, with bonus weight for Reddit thread mentions.
